1)These are brand new packages.
2)Rogers is giving out terminals like candy for free.
3)People pay what $30 for basic analog 1-70.With basic digital it goes 1-170.

What happens if you'd want to hook up a 2nd tv, do they charge extra for a second terminal or what? Right now at home my parent's are using basic cable (analog) with rogers and I feel they're paying too much for it, they jacked it up by $10 a month because of the 2nd tv too. Might be time to give rogers a call!

You are a bit wrong.A good number of these channels are time shifting.

I dunno where you got those prices but the "HD VIP" seems like a total absolute ripoff. You can get the TMN Vip package for $65.99 (which is VIP + TMN + 25 bonus channels) and add the HD bundle for $6.99 and have what seems to me like almost the exact same thing, only difference being some other mystery 40 channels you probably would never watch.

I used to have the VIP package with my HD PVR and was paying $58.99 a month for the VIP package, basically to get TSN. I said enough of this so I cut it back to Basic Cable and am paying only $27.49 now. Not missing the VIP at all. And I managed to get them to give me the HD PVR free for two years. I miss out on some HD channels like TSN and Discovery, but for $30 less a month, I'm OK with that.

I received a call from rogers a few days ago, saying I am valued customer blah blah and offered me the Basic digital for 26.99 + tax a month includes rental of box etc for the first 6 months and then its 34 after that.. I also get 3 months of the specialty ch free, not a bad deal. 1 year contract. If I decide to quit before the 6months of the one year, I pay back the savings..

Say what? I've been on VIP for a year and a half, Rogers has never mentioned anything.
